Effect of Turbulence Intensity on Cross-Injection Film Cooling at a Stepped or Smooth Endwall of a Gas Turbine Vane Passage by Pey-Shey Wu, Shen-Ta Tsai, Yue-Hua Jhuo

“…The levels of turbulence intensity used in the experiments are T.I.=1.8%, 7%, and 12%. Other parameters considered in the film cooling experiments include three inlet Reynolds numbers (9.20×104 , 1.24×105, and  1.50×105), three blowing ratios (0.5, 1.0, and 2.0), and three endwall conditions (smooth endwall and stepped endwall with forward-facing or backward-facing step). …”

Poly (lactic acid)/Poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) films with simultaneous high oxygen barrier and fast degradation properties by Mengjing Yang, Yuxi Mao, Penghui Zhang, Jie Li, Zeming Tong, Zhenguo Liu, Yanhui Chen

“…In this study, oxygen scavenger hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) and cobalt salt catalyst were incorporated into the PLA/poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PLA/PBAT), followed by melting extrusion and three-layer co-extrusion blown film process to prepare the composite films. The oxygen permeability coefficient of the composite film combined with 6 wt% oxygen scavenger and 0.4 wt% catalyst was decreased significantly from 377.00 cc·mil·m−2·day−1·0.1 MPa−1 to 0.98 cc·mil·m−2·day−1·0.1 MPa−1, showing a remarkable enhancement of 384.69 times compared with the PLA/PBAT composite film. …”

The Power of Conformity: Music, Sound, and Vision in Back to the Future by Marc Priewe

“…After an overview of the movie’s cultural contexts, the focus shifts to the interplays between sound and cinematic mise-en-scène, with a particular emphasis on popular music. I argue that the film employs music strategically in order to convey a nostalgic view of American culture and society in the 1950s by including certain songs and excluding others, as well as by a score that is deeply rooted in the traditions of Hollywood film music. …”
